I think a group of emo's took over the ads for the 360.

So what’s the good bad with the new x-box? I’m glad it doesn’t come out until Jan next year here in aus... All you Americans are the guinea pigs to see if its worth buying or not :p

Damn, we are guinea pigs for sure. But the reasons not to buy it are simple. Even more so than watching a clip about it.
1. It costs $400, and this summer it'll be at least $50 less.
2. It is very glitchy. Hopefully waiting a little bit longer will lead to them releasing newer, better, less glitchy models.
3. The top titles for the system aren't being released for a while. (Halo 3 doesn't come out until the same time as the PS3 enters the market)

PD: Zero is a godly game. The 360 is having a lot of problems/bugs though. For example, if you play Halo 2, you occasionally see the last map you played as like a ghost, its a picture that is over the entire screen but its see through, so it only like distracts you, or disorients you. So far thats all I've heard.

All i kinda hoping is the price for Xbox and in general current-gen systems will go down so maybe I can buy one of them to go with my pretty little gamecube, which is hopefully waiting to play prince of persia:the two thrones and later on twilight princess (not to mention baten kaitos which i'm hopefully getting this holiday finally)

great vid btw - i not also enjoyed the finger pistols but also the hand shotguns and the invisible grenade

Basically, one of the main problems is freezing. Also, some have been utterly destroying game disks. I'd stay away from 360 for a while.

I've heard things about how hot it runs, like a small percentage of them will freeze up after a few minutes, even... But I'm kinda glad I didn't get mine on launch day, hopefully they'll have the problem fixed by the time I get it.

But is it just me, or would being in that commercial be like... fvcking awesome?
